As for the odds, the only people this whole song and dance is in aid of is the swing voters.
Traditional ALP voters (even those feeling disillusioned with the ALP's sheer arrogance towards the electorate), would NEVER give their vote to LNP, because the alternative is even MORE arrogant.
Same can be said when it comes to grass roots LNP voters. They'd never swing to ALP in a pink fit, so what makes you think ALP voters would?
If anything, those who don't wish to vote ALP any more would be more likely to give their vote to a minority party or independent to skew the power base away from the two major parties. LNP is so far removed from ALP principles it isn't funny & vice versa.
Therefore the only statistic worth better on in terms of which side of centre the electorate tips to......would be those in the swing voter category. How many do they represent in any given election?
